None of that is true. There is due process, no hit squads. They will have the ability to bring this to court (a process which they already started). And deportation would happen to where they come from, so other EU countries and the US.

Not at all, nothing in the post you replied to is actually true.

Almost all of those are pretty niche problems though. Which explains why they just aren’t a high priority for manufacturers.

apples done those things and we said the same thing about those moves. And now look at em.

True, however a lot of people really don’t care about that stuff which somehow often gets overlooked here and on reddit.

Interesting purely mechanical design. Our first remote (that didn’t have a cable connection) used sound as well, but it was battery powered and as a kid, I could hear at least some of those sounds. It had way more than just 4 buttons though, maybe the mechanical design hits a limit there at some point (or electronics just got cheaper).

Apparently this was during winter. If they got hit by bad weather unprepared, they might not have had any options left once they realized they were fucked.

During winter, in bad weather it might take a while to get back to civilization if you are somewhere out there. I mean sure you should always plan for stuff like that and be prepared (and look for help well before running out), but this really wasn’t a well planned thing from the start.

Local? Probably before the paint was even dry. Other people will probably still be scratching their heads when they plow full speed into a wall because from my experience slowing down when in doubt seems to drop in priority lower every year.

French cars regularly had sometimes strange looking but often quite useful quirks.

No. 9 but for media volume

Thankfully, all cars I’ve driven that had a touch screen also had some media buttons on the steering wheel. I’d prefer to have good old physical buttons in the center console, but at least you didn’t have to use the touch screen.

Eyes off the road for 5secs

Nice rant, but if you do this, you really shouldn’t be driving.

I thought this was the exact reason why they bundle multiple streams with almost all subscriptions. To provide multiple people in a household the option to stream their own stuff. Did you have only one single stream?

AC doesn’t just help with temperature though, it also helps with humidity if it is a humid heat outside. Makes it much more bearable even if the temperature difference might not be huge.

Long term, yes

Short term probably not, as it fluctuates year to year
